And Georgia's pokemon are still up for grabs, although it is a close one for this.

This chapter finishes up the Introduction/Freezer Lake Arc, and enters the Nimbasa City one, where we see more of what Konoha and the Red Ribbon Rebellion Army are planning and want.

(Chapter 5- Freezer Lake Showdown)

In a deep underground facility, an old man with little hair on his head and a goatee sat back and sipped a cup of tea with a genial smile as he played chess with his old friend, another old man covered in bandages and wielding a cane.

"So, Danzo, what have you to report? Anything new?" He asked, amused at how he could make even such a hard man as Danzo Shimura uncomfortable with his false kindness.

The other old man, Danzo, just shrugged and moved his pawn to an attack position. "Ever since that fool Giovanni has been taken care of, the acquisition of Kanto has gone smoothly. Although, was it absolutely necessary to threaten the boy, Ketchup or something, that his precious mother would have an 'accident' if he didn't follow our commands? Was he really worth all the trouble, such a simple pawn, Hiruzen?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi let his gentle smile grow as he chuckled. "Oh Danzo, such foolishness. Of course acquiring a pawn of Ash KETCHUM's potential was worth it. Especially considering just WHO his mother and father were."

"Oh? And who were they?"

"Delia Ketchum was, by far, one of the most fearsome trainers I had ever seen. She was ruthless and brutal. His father, though...well, he was nothing short of a genius. He was, without a doubt, one of the most intelligent men in the world."

"Sounds like she was a no good punk, to me."

Hiruzen smiled, but his eyes held a dangerous glint. "Do not presume to comment on my daughter again, Danzo."

Knowing when he had crossed the line, Danzo made his move and sent his pawn forward. "Anyways, what do you intend to do about the ever infamous 'Tyrant' and his return to the field? He could become a threat to us and our plans."

"He shall be brought into the fold, or he shall die. There is no middle ground to be had for us. All enemies, no matter how small or seemingly innocent, can't be spared. That is the way of Konoha." Hiruzen said in a steel edged voice.

(With Naruto)

Naruto sighed in relief as he sat back and called Sonzai back to his pokeball, happy that he had gotten that all out of that shitty situation. To have battled all three of the Legendary Three would have been suicide, although he may have been able to do it if he released all of his pokemon, but protecting his friends would have been nearly impossible in the ensuing battle.

It was bad enough that Amy had been ripped from her home by him, and the chances of ever going back were slim to none, as the three were no doubt destroying the Pokemon Center in rage. The girl would be devastated to learn that her entire life had been obliterated, and all because he was unable, and unwilling, to fight those three in any kind of battle.

But what really got him were the secret messages sent to him by Jiraiya. The man had his entire posture in a way that screamed for him to listen even more carefully than he normally would have, and what he heard had given him a small shock:

The Officer Jenny family was compromised.

What did that mean? The family was compromised? Did that mean something he was supposed to know?

The code used was an old one that he had learned from Professor Juniper for fun. And while some of the words may have been screwed more than a five-dime whore, the message had been delivered: Konoha was making it's move.

Snow crunching brought him from his thoughts as he turned to the sound, and watched in a numb detachment as a shadowed figure began to climb the steep hill that Sonzai had teleported them to.

Cursing under his breath, Naruto fumbled for a pokeball, in the hopes of calling out Yugameru or Raizen. His hands fumbled as he felt around for his pokeballs, but froze when he felt a gloved hand on his shoulder. Turning slowly, he came face to face with the masked form of his father. Time seemed to freeze as he registered the absolute randomness of his appearance, as well as the fact that he felt...not exactly happy to see his sire, but it certainly wasn't hate, more like...relief.

"W-What? Dad? What are you doing here? How did you get here?" He stammered out, cursing himself for the stutter. Of all the times for him to get nervous.

Obito just gave a light laugh as he removed his hand and looked around at his sons friends. "Well, I was passing by on my way to Nimbasa City to speak to a contact of mine, when I saw a bright flash of light. Now, being the curious man that I am, I followed and discovered my...offspring and what I assume as his friends in the snow. Now, a better question would be, why are YOU here?"

Naruto glared a bit as he answered. "We would have been attacked if I hadn't of had Sonzai teleport us away from the nearby Pokemon Center."

"Who was attacking you?" Obito inquired.

"The Legendary Three trainers from Sinnoh."

Mmm, that was bad. If those three were here, then that meant that his suspicions were right, and Konoha was a remnant of the Red Ribbon Rebellion. But, he knew for a fact that the two were separate organizations. Just what was going on here? "That is...most troubling news."

Naruto glowered at the ground. Sure, Dad, you haven't seen me in who knows how long, and you're not even concerned with my health? "Yeah, I guess. But, Jiraiya sent me a message through an old code, saying something about the Jenny Family being compromised, or something. Just what does that mean?"

Obito cursed. If the jenny family was compromised, then that meant that the two organizations were already moving and preparing. But for what? "It means that I need to contact your mother, as well as several other people. But, for now, I shall accompany you to the Nimbasa City."

Naruto raised an eyebrow. "How did you know we were on our way to Nimbasa City?"

"Why else would you brave the cruel frozen wasteland that is Freezer Lake, if you weren't on your way to Nimbasa?"

(Later)

After his friends awoke, and after consoling a near hysterical Amy, the group followed Obito as he lead them to a side route, across the frozen lake.

Placing one foot forward, Naruto began to remember why he disliked Ice-Type pokemon so much. Not only were they cold, but ice was slippery, it hurt when you fell, and getting your ass frozen repeatedly was pissing him off. Why in the name of all things holy and unholy did they have to cross the fucking lake! Couldn't they have spent a few more hours following the safer, less frozen and slippery, main route? Would it have been so bad to be a bit later than planned, instead of die of hypothermia? "I hate this place."

Chuckling, Stefan looked at his friend and said. "Well, look on the brightside."

"What brightside?"

"...I'll tell you when I think of one." Was his reply, after the chubbier teen thought for a minute. In all honesty, he hated this place too, and began to hate Ice-Type pokemon after a group of both Water and Ice-Types came by and shot watery projectiles at the group. It had been through the intervention of Naruto's Metagross, Haka, that the pokemon had been sent off, and the currently floating pokemon was keeping a sharp vigil for any threats.

The pokemon of Freezer Lake were naturally tougher than if they had been in a different area, as the climate was harsh and cruel to them. They were bigger and thicker than others, having to generate some kind of fatty layer to help keep heat in, and they had learned to live off of very little.

Naruto could honestly see the benefits of training his pokemon here for a bit, but the harsh, unforgiving cold made such a thing impossible. He simply hated the cold too much.

(Elsewhere- at that time)

Hunter J sat in her command chair, her legs crossed as she drank a cup of tea and examined the reports her spies had submitted to her with a frown. She had tasked them with, after being given advice by her husband, to find out as much as she could about the Red Ribbon Rebellion Army and Konoha, as he believed that they weren't the same organization.

These reports gave some evidence of that claim, but she wasn't one to jump to conclusions. But, what had made her both shocked and angry, was the interest they had showed towards her estranged son, and his abilities as a pokemon trainer. It hadn't escaped anyones notice the return of the 'Tyrant', nor did it escape them how much his pokemon seemed more powerful. Whatever he had done to make them like that had caught nearly everyone's attention, and many had sought him out to learn his secrets.

None of them got a single thing.

But, the RRR Army was resourceful. They had the means and members to cause problems for every region, and were more than willing to harm a few innocents to get to one person.

J's rather cold look melted away to a worried one as she thought back to the day she had given birth to Naruto, and held him in her arms. He was beautiful, a true example of peace. But, all of it had been shattered when reality dug it's cruel hands into her moments later. He would be hunted, tracked to the last dregs of reality, if only for some fool to get his idiotic revenge against his less than Saintly parents. She had raised him for his early years, keeping him close to her and her pokemon. But, when he was young, she had sent him to Juniper's for protection.

She had lived thirteen years of her life not getting to watch him as he grew up, but she always left presents and gifts for him on his birthday, October Tenth. She never stayed long, just enough to run her hands through his hair and whisper silent words of encouragement to him as he lay asleep, sound in his bed and dreams of a whole and secure family. She would leave, her eyes overflowing with tears, hoping, praying for a second chance.

For redemption.

(With Team Tyrant)

Obito looked back at his son as the teen dealt with the many pokemon who had tried to impede their progress to Nimbasa City by crossing the giant, two mile wide lake. From what he saw of that Metagross, Haka, Naruto was a hell of a trainer, and could probably beat him. But, did that deter him? No. Not at all. If anything, it made him all the more giddy for a battle.

He sent his one visible eye scanning around the group as they walked, occasionally snapping his head to a rustling bush or a crunch of snow. The chances of there being an enemy out here were slim, but this was a war, even if a Cold War, and enemies could be everywhere.

A sudden movement caught his attention and forced him to leap back, narrowly dodging the poisonous purple needles that came from an all too familiar Arbok. Snapping his gaze up, he saw the pale and cruel face of Orochimaru standing there, his arms crossed as he smirked arrogantly at Obito, even as Tsunade came running from behind a snow blind with Jiraiya in tow, both standing in front of Naruto challengingly. "Well well well, if it isn't Obito Uchiha. What brings you to our neck of the woods?"

"Oh, you know me, just decided to take the kids for a nature walk." Obito replied.

Meanwhile, Naruto was going through several battle plans in his head. 'Shit. Despite being below freezing, the ice here is really thin. If I were to use most of my pokemon, then either their weight or attacks would cause all of us to fall under. And that isn't something that we could survive.' "What do you assclowns want? Didn't you get the message back at the Pokemon Center?"

"Oh, we got the message, loud and clear. But Tsunade wasn't keen on letting you go without putting you in your place." Jiraiya said. He saw Naruto frown before the teen nodded and grabbed a certain pokeball.

"Right, then I guess we're battling then, huh?" He replied in a sarcastic voice. "Bring out your pokemon, Old Hag!"

"OLD HAG?! THAT'S IT! YOU'RE DEAD! FUCK WHAT SARUTOBI WANTS!" Tsunade roared, scaring away quite a few larger pokemon in the vicinity, while the others in the group stayed back and away. "RIP THIS LITTLE SHIT TO SHREDS, GYARADOS!"

From the stream of light came the large Water-Type pokemon as it roared and cracked the ice it was on, making Naruto think quickly. "Come on out, Shinju!"

Shinju was larger than other Typhlosions, his massive bulk was quite intimidating, but he was very, very light on his feet. His flaming back was healthy, the flames reaching several feet away from his body. With a loud snore as it opened it's one good eye, Shinju looked at it's opponent, before giving a snort in contempt. "Ty, Typhlosion."

"Yes, if you beat him, then you can eat him." Naruto should have known the Shinju was going to ask for food. He always did. he even went into his 'cute mode' to get food from random people in cities. He just rolled like that.

The battle began with Shinju dodging several swipes from the larger pokemons tail, before responding with a flame wheel. "Shinju, use Intelligent Hard Work!" The Typhlosion took a breath as it released three balls of flames that travelled faster than expected, making Gyarados stagger from the pain and burning of the attack, not realizing the cracks under it were significantly bigger. He didn't let up, as another move was called out by the Tyrant. "Use Grand Fireball on the ice under Gyarados!"

Taking another breath for the needed oxygen, Shinju breathed out a mass of flames that stayed in front of him until it was around a ten foot ball in radius, before sending it at the ice. The cracks became larger as the pokemon fell, the freezing waters immediately shutting down it's heart from the fire warming it up.

What many didn't know, but Naruto did, was that Gyarados can't survive in below freezing temperatures. They are cold blooded pokemon, and live, primarily, in the Cinnabar Island area, and rarely, if ever, come to places like Freezer Lake. Coupled with the shock and pain from the fire attacks, and Gyarados was easy to beat.

Tsunade snarled, before smirking and pulling a gun out, making Naruto, Shinju, and Team Tyrant tense. "Well, you beat my little pet. No matter, I still win. Now come on, you need to come with us so we can get back to base."

Suddenly, a mass of webs came from nowhere and hit her, pinning her to a large block of ice on the surface of the lake as Jiraiya stood by his Ariados, Suteki, as she spat out the webs. "Now now, Tsunade. I can't have you taking him to the Old Monkey. I still have a job to do."

"What are you doing?! What do you mean?! Answer me!"

"Please allow me to explain. My name is Jiraiya Gama, master spy and agent of the Pokemon rangers, with a senior class license. I was sent by the Captain-Commander to investigate Konoha, and wouldn't you know it? I learned that the war criminal Hiruzen Sarutobi was still alive. Now, you may be wondering how far this deception goes, well, Obito Uchiha wasn't the only one to have stolen some valuable information."

Naruto looked around in shock. What the fuck was going on?! First, there was the incredibly one-sided fight that he always seemed to be a part of, next, Jiraiya was a double-agent! "Hold the fuck up! What the fucking shit hell is going on?"

"Later! Right now, your father is probably finishing Orochimaru off, but could use our help. The man was always more slippery than even a Water-Type!"

(Obito vs. Orochimaru)

Orochimaru cursed his luck. Of all the opponents he had to fight, it had to be Obito Uchiha. The man was a notorious trainer, and was without a doubt Champion level. The chances of using his normal tactics of evasion, sneak attacks, and underhanded moves wouldn't work.

He had his work cut out for him.

"Go Seviper!" He called out as he released his viper like pokemon. He was a specialist when it came to poison and snake like pokemon, and was always careful to only use them.

"Fight, Druddigon!" Bringing out his most powerful pokemon, Obito opened the match. "Use Giga Impact!"

Druddigon jumped into the air and hovered as his fist was covered in a golden aura, before falling fast towards the ground, his fist nearing Seviper as he fell at an alarming rate. "Seviper, dodge and use Poison Needles!"

The serpent blitzed left and turned to Druddigon just as he hit the ground, before firing several purple needles, all of which moved incredibly fast. They hit the larger pokemon in the face, and the effects were almost immediate, and Druddigon staggered, before toughening through it and getting back into his stance. "Druddigon, use Dragon Rage!"

The massive pokemon took a breath as he filled his lungs with energy and oxygen, his chest swelling as he sent the concentrated, dark blue blast of energy at Seviper, getting a direct hit, and rendering it unconscious. Orochimaru snarled and recalled his pokemon back to him, before leaping away and running like a pussybitch.

Sighing, Obito closed his eyes and turned to his son as he ran up with his friends and Jiraiya. "Well, not exactly what I was expecting, but hey, better than a herd of Haxorus, right?"

"Not now. I wanna know, right now, exactly why they were here! What is going on?!" Naruto demanded. He felt his pride hurt a bit at not being able to protect his friends, and he would be damned if he was going to let one of them get hurt.

Jiraiya looked down and said in a serious voice. "War is happening, kid. One that has the power to rip our world apart."

Georgia gasped in shock, while everyone else did too, except for Obito, as he already knew. "What do you mean a war?! What's going on?!"

"Some nearly seventeen years ago, there was a faction of pokemon trainers who disliked the Gym system, as well as the way things were. So, to put it simply, the rebelled and began a war. But, thanks to some help from some dissidents inside the dissidents, they were stopped easily enough. The war ended, but the Red Ribbon Rebellion Army didn't disappear. No, it went underground and hid." Jiraiya began, only to be interrupted by Obito.

"But, there were still some internal problems. Things like who the leader was, what the goal was to be, how things got done, stuff like that. After a few years, a more extreme, dangerous branch broke off with a single, unknown goal. They call themselves Konoha, and they've risen in strength quite a lot lately. As for the remainder of the Red Ribbon Rebellion Army, they have a simplistic goal in mind: They want to rule the world. I don't know how, I don't know why, but all I do know is that they need Mew or the illusive Mewtwo to do so." Obito lectured. His son was going to be a big player in this entire shebang, so he needed to be well informed of the situation, and leaving out information was dangerous.

"So, this Red Ribbon Rebellion Army want to rule the world, huh?" Naruto mumbled as he looked at the sky. It didn't seem fair, to him at least, that they would want to rule the world. If they did, then what happened to the pokemon and trainers that got caught in the middle, who didn't want to fight? Simple; they would be terminated for being weak, or 'against' them.

"Yes, in a simple manner, yes." Obito said. It was a lot of information to take in at one time, but it was imperative that the true danger of the situation be understood.

"I'm still going to Nimbasa City." Naruto said in a voice of finality.

"What! Why?" Jiraiya asked.

"I have a contact there that may have a lot of information that we could use. As well as a friend who can definitely help us."

"B-but what a-about my h-home?" Amy asked with a stutter. She was still nearly catatonic from the loss of her Pokemon Center, and the cold didn't help either.

"Well, you have a new one. Wherever we are in the world, no matter what, you'll always be welcome with me!" Naruto said in a tone that screamed for someone to argue.

It was a simple, effective solution that worked out for the best, but Amy was glared at by Georgia, who was angry that some pink haired hussy was stealing HER Naruto. She knew him the longest, had been his best friend for years, and was the only one who had ever not judged him for his past as an underground fighter.

"So, now what?" The lake is too broken up here to continue on from here, it's too far to walk back and go the original way, and they didn't have any pokemon capable of carrying them all at once. It was a hard situation, and Iris was able to point that out.

"Hmm, I'll have to call her and ask for a lift. She is supposed to be in the area for the next few weeks after all." Obito mumbled as he brought out a cell phone and punched in a few numbers. "Yeah, it's me...I know...I know...Yes...Wakizashi are the best...we need a pick up...Yes...Fuck yes...with chains...dango and oil...yes...Naruto's with me now...sure...bye, love you." He turned to look at Naruto, who had yet to smile at him once. "That was your mother, she's on her way to pick us up."

Naruto clenched his jaw and looked away as he pulled a pokeball out. Letting it fly, Razien jumped out of the stream of light and looked around in boredom, at least until Naruto gave him a command. "Raizen, you see the man in the orange, one eyehole, orange mask that has a swirl? Attack. Hold nothing back! Show him the power of the Kirin!:"

"Now Naruto, no need to be hasty." Georgia spoke up. At his light glare, she finished her statement. "Finish him quickly and let's get on with it."

AN: Yeah, new chapter. Gonna just say it now, a lot of you were kinda off about the plans of the RRRA and Konoha, but that's okay. However, their motives and plans remain a mystery. What do they want with Mew? What is up with Freezer Lake? How will Naruto act around his nonchalant parent? Will Hunter J get to know Naruto at all? Find out next time on Dragon Ball- er, I mean Naruto the Pokemon Tyrant!
